Riot Games, creators of ever-popular game League of Legends have announced they are opening an office for the Oceania region in Sydney.

On top of this, they have announced the office is for their marketing, esports and community teams - with more announcements to come.

Hopefully this means localised servers for the Oceania region.

Shit dude, he's a legend in the community. One of the original Rioters, the only Aussie at the HQ, and general insightful guy about how LoL runs (because he wrote it).

Yeah man, I tried to get in touch with him on behalf of MyMedia several times prior to the release of LoL for an interview, but RIOT never got back to me.
Whenever I went to his house, he always had some part of a game he was putting together to show me. First person shooters like Doom mainly from memory.
He was very geeky and anti-social :P but extremely good at what he does because of it
